Higher Education (University +) - August 2007

I am starting law school next week and I'm not sure what supplies I need. I am not the most organized person, so I need all the help I can get. Do I need three-ring binders, note books, note cards? What? Please be as specific as possible if you can because like I said I need help with organization. Thanks!

Is there a difference in taking one class over the other?
I am thinking about going back to school and was wondering which class I should take first? I am leaning towards taking intro to mass communications class. Can any one help me out? Both would maybe meet the requirements at a 4 year school.

I want to finish my bachelors degree and need to do it online (I have 2 babies at home and cannot attend night classes). I've already earned some credits towards my bachelors... but that was 10 years ago. I've read every bit of chat that was available... but want to hear from people who have actually participated, rcvd their degree, and have been able to obtain employment with it. I have a good deal of experience and track record... but this damn piece of paper seems to make or break certain positions (ex: pharmacuetical sales). Since I plan to go back to work when my kids are in school... I thought I'd better get my degree out of the way while I can. I'm in NY and would prefer a NY based college... but am open to any and all suggestions. Please only responses from people who have been there, done that!
Of course, tuition is also a consideration... as some of these online universities charge an astronomical fee per credit/class. I'd like to hear your experiences and advice.

I'm 15 and in year 10 at school. Lots of people have told me that I only need TAFE to start a career in real estate. I'd prefer to go to university because of heaps of reasons. I've been looking on the net for courses for real estate at unis but I can't find any. I've decided that if there aren't any university courses I might aswell drop out after this year and go to TAFE. I don't see any point in staying for year 11 and 12 if I'm gonna go to TAFE anyway and I don't see the use of learning the subjects I've chosen for next year (chemistry, anc/mod history, adv english, visual arts and business). Business and English are probably the only ones that would be useful to me...
Any advice? :S

Would it be considered unethical to change?

It has been my opinion that this is an education, not a job. So, why would my current school consider it "unprofessional" or "unethical" to transfer with my fellowships to another school? Will it adversely affect my "reputation" to switch schools to finish my doctorate?

Hi. I can't decide what to major in. I am a junior in high school right now. I like history, science, and math. I like to read, and write, and speak/voice my opinions. Are there any majors that might suit all or most of my likes? Thanks

I can remember when I was still in high school, my counselors, teachers and parents all telling me going to college would pretty much secure my future. When did that change? Nowadays, grads are always talking about how hard it is to find a job. It just doesn't seem fair or right to me that having a college education isn't good enough anymore. I've heard more people talk about being overlooked or rejected due to lack of experience than I care to know. It almost discourages me from continuing my education. Also, It seems to me systematically more and more hoops are being placed out there for people to jump through, and I for one am not interested. First the message was go to college get an education. Then it was don't waste your time with an associate's degree, get your bachelor's at least. Now it seems companies won't take you serious if you don't at least have a bachelor's degree and/or an extensive amount of experience. How is that right? Now I need to train myself on my own dime too?

I know that there are hundreds colleges and universities which have not obtained accreditation from CHEA in the U.S. I learn that applying for the accreditation is absolutely optional for institutes that have a legal approval from the government of the state. My questions are here regarding this. I ask the questions because I am Korean who is not familliar with that.


1. Are the degrees from unaccredited colleges never credential although the degrees were awarded from legally approved colleges?

2. Are there any discriminations for unaccredited college degree holders to apply for a job especially to the body of governmental or public offices in the U.S?

Thank you.

Just curious if colleges look at the student's parents backgrounds... such as financial, criminal, etc.
Please, this is a serious issue for me and I would only appreciate serious and knowledgeable answers. Thanks! :-)

I can either stay at Baruch College and graduate on time with a 3.5 gpa which is ok. Or I can graduate from Indiana University a year to a year and a half later, be a couple of thousand in debt, but I would automatically have more opportunity in getting into a top MBA program when I'm older. What should I do?!! thanks

I am a 19 year old soon to be college boy, and I've been trying so hard, for so long to find a NICE college girl. How do I find a nice college girl?
Also, I want her to be able to understand me (and not make fun of me and stuff), because my Mom drives me to college (I drive sometimes), and they helped me with tuition and college books, and that I am scared of walking by myself, because of fears of terroists and stuff. What can I do?
